Be a Part of the 2026 Summer Reading Club Decorations!

This summer’s theme is “Unearth a Story” and we want to feature the children of our community throughout our themed decorations.

To participate, we ask that you submit 3 photographs of your child from the waist up.

  • Photos should be of babies to those entering 5th grade.
  • Please photograph your child wearing their favorite color. Shirts or dresses should be a solid color, free of patterns, graphics and writing.
  • Please no group photos. Each child’s picture should be as an individual.
  • All images that are used will be displayed for the entire year.

Photos should be emailed to kids@emmaclark.org. *Please include the child’s full name and age. 

*The deadline for submitting photos is Tuesday, March 31.

Tips for taking your photos:

  1. You may use a smartphone, however if you have a digital camera the print-outs will be clearer.
  2. Please submit high-quality JPEG or TIFF files.
  3. When taking photos:
  • Shoot full body from the waist up.
  • The brighter the picture, the better.
  • If it’s a sunny day, shoot pictures in the shade to avoid shadow.
  • Take the picture with the sun behind the photographer.
